Honour roll

Thank You for Making the Future Brighter.
At Charles Sturt University, we know that education is more than lectures and exams it’s a powerful force for change.

Since our very first scholarship ceremonies in 1984, donor generosity has made it possible to award more than $30.58 million in scholarships to 6,681 students across our regional campuses.

Behind each of those numbers is a deeply human story: a first-in-family graduate, a refugee rebuilding their future, a student nurse completing placement in a remote town. And while scholarships remain a cornerstone of our impact, your support has extended far beyond fueling vital research, creating new academic positions, and launching programs that change communities as much as they change students. At the heart of every one of these stories is you.

Scholarships since 1984

  • $30.58 million

    in scholarships and student support

    Together, you form the Charles Sturt Foundation Trust, a community of people who believe that where you live should never limit what you learn. Because of you, education is more accessible, more equitable, and more empowering.

  • 6,681 students

    given the chance to learn, grow, and succeed

    From every student whose life is now on a different path, thank you.

  • 1 shared goal

    Remove the barriers to education

    We are inspired by what we’ve achieved together, and excited by what’s still to come.

Benefactors

We gratefully acknowledge all who make this possible.

To our community and industry partners - thank you

You’re helping build the future of our regions. Through partnerships with councils, businesses, and service organisations, you’re nurturing the next generation of teachers, tech experts, health workers and community leaders - right where they’re needed most.
